once saw the face of young
man in picture which ne
thought was the type of all the nobiest
emotions of mankind, and he purchased
it and hung it in his studio in ORDER that
he might look upon that face for IN
spiration and as guide. Sore time
after he saw the picture of an old maa,
degraded in appearance, the expression
of whose face indicated every vice and
passion. This picture he also purchased
and hung it up, SO that it might be a
warning to bim. What was the artists
surprise to find that the two pictures
were of the same person. 1t was evt'

ZACCHARIAS.
Rev. DIR. BarrOWs, Sermon OH
Curiosity and Work.

Rev. DIR. BarrOVs, Sermon ON
Curiosity and Work.
Rev. DIR. Barrows, of San Francisco,
took for his subject at the Congrega.
tional Church, on Third street, last night,
The story of Zaccharias as related in the
new testament. Zaccharias was dis
tin ipguished character, and he desired to
see Jesus, not because he was sick, or
because he was blind, but because he
had heard of Jesus and His relief to
many of the poor and needy. He was q
man of strong will, and when he wanted
to do anything, nothing was too great an
obstacle for him to overcome. He was
small man, and if he went with the
crowd he knew he would not see over
the heads of those in front, SO he ran
ahead and climbed into sycamore tree.
His action called forth the ridicule of
the people, but he did not care He
was bound to see Jesus, and this showed
his character. When Christ came along
He stopped, and standing under the
tree called to Zaccharias to come down
Jesus knew his name, and He said come
down for to-day / must abide in thy
heart. Zaccharias came down and was
converted and used all his goods for the
good of the cause. II was curiosity
which led Zlccharias to go to see Jesus,
and it is q fact that curiosity often
merges into faith. He felt
a general interest in Christ, and when
he did see him Christ developed tina
curiosity and turned it into faith. There
is lesson in this for us. To-day men
are jealous of their positions in the com.
munity, and why should they not be
equally jealous of the Government OF
God. Many soul has been led to the
bosom of the Lord through curiosity
Most of these entered the sanctuary
privily through curiosity, but in some
text, some song, or some word, Christ
was heard. He saw the situation and
told the youthful mind to come and fol
low him, and it did. The second sub
| iect was the title conferred. Those who
have the title Christian bestowed upol
them are followers Of Christ, and thai
title includes all who stand upon the
same platform. =. A title is an in
herited property. Inherited property
is much safer than that received
by will, and if we have Christ's title Sc
do we inherit Christ. The third division
of the lesson taught related to men,
capacity in religious things. A mar
may have the title, but if he has no
capacity he amounts to but little. 4
mans capacity depends upon the spirit
usl energy within him.. II he have no
capacity to work for Christ be is bu

work for the Master, no matter what the
cost may be. Desire alone will not &C
complish anything. Desires are the
wind but not the helm, the steam but
not the drivers. Therefore, il we have
a desire we must do as Zaccharias did
work in accordance thereto. And we
must not look at ourselves alone, but al
the Master for whom we work. There

world, but above, if the battle is made

THE POTIER'S CLAY.
DIR. Fay,s Discourse at the Grand
Opera House.


DIR. Fay, of the Church of the Unity,
took for his text yesterday morning at
the Opera House, Romans 9th chapter,
2lst verse, "Ha'h not the potter power
over the clay, of the same lump to make
one vessel unto honor, and another unto
dishonor?" The reverend gentleman
asked the congregation if they had ever
considered into how many forms clay
can be shaped, how in the hands of
genius images can be made representing
angelic forms or the most repulsive OBJ.
ject? As clay can be moulded or modelled
into almost any shape. so can the char.
acter of the human being. Practical life
is formed by the working of crude forms
into q higher and better shape. In the
beginning the base elements of human
nature are similar, and it oftentimes
needs but the smallest in fuence to mould
those elements into either noble form
or character. 1t is of some advantage
to be born, we'll as regards the flesh,
but that does not prove that those
40 born are the most beautiful
characters. Take fer instance two boys
one born of the humblest parents into
low sphere, and the other of the most
cultured parents. In after years the one
who entered life at its lowest point may
reach the pinnacle ofgreatness while the
we'll born youth-may sink into the low
est depths. They are but clay in the
hands of the potter, and the smallest
circumstance of which they have no
knowledge very possibly caused the rise
Of the bne and the fall of the other.
When man is born he has within him
the embryos of many possibilities in his
soul. and 1t is to the moulding of these
into shape that he owes his future. He
can be what he ewill md the potter car
mould him as.Slays 10y efter life some

The Shell Game.

Friday morning, while quite crowd

to see Oliver X. make his final trial, o
young man with blonde moustaahe
concluded to turn nimble penny. He
accordingly brought out the old stale
game of three nut shells and pea. I,

however, and the young man reaped
quite harvest, taking in about $3.50.
In order to protect the poor innocent
public the HERALD will shortly publish

R. G. Dun & Co., in their weekly re-
view of trade, say that foreign commerce
is still unsatisfactory while in domestic
trade the usual summer dullness Is in
creased by a variety of causes. Large
bank clearings and railroad earnings fail
b reflect the present state of business,
which is IN many branches characterized
by uncertainty and hesitation. Low
prices delay the movement of wheat,
and injury to corn. hay and some minor
crops products uncertainty. Meanwhile
foreign imports at New York continue
larger than last year, while exports for
four weeks past have been s per cent
smaller. Wheat, corn, oats, oil, beef and
hogs are lower than a week ago. Red
winter wheat at 79I cents at New York
the lowest July price on record-com-
pares with 70 TO 7S4 cents in November
and December, 1884. but with that excep-
ton no lower price has been recorded in
any month for sixty-two years. Corn at
As cents at New York and oats at SO cents
and beef at an average of 81 .35 do not en-
courage farmers to buy largely of the
products of the industries. Speculation
in coffee halts since syndicate failures,
but prices weakened again to day and
coffee yielded a shade. Coal agents an
nounce an advance of 10 cents for Aug. /,
and that trade is supported by increasing
demand. Cotton goods met an unusually
good demand and prices are stiff. In
woolens the orders scarcely suffice to
open the market except in cheviots,
which move at prices not higher than
last year. In dress goods a fair trade is
noted. Interior points nearly all note
d~ullness, with hopes of large trade here
after. Money is in only fair demand,
with no noteworthy change in rates, and
collections fair, with improvement ut one
or two points. The speculation in tobac-
co begins TO advance prices. The trea-
sury took in 81, 200, 900 more than it paid
out during the past week, but none is
easy at 4 per cent and foreign exchange
unaltered. The outlook is affected in
some districts by injury to crops from
drouth OF storms. Less is heard of real
estate speculation at the west and south,
but at several points, as at Omaha, it is
noticed that heavy building operations
are in progress.

The interest taken this wear in the
organization Of Il Montana Guarl. which
is now composed Of II fall regiment Of
infantry and two large companies of cav

organization of the kind in this territory.

probable need OF a home guard, appoint

John Bozeman was killed by Indians
near Hunters Hot Springs, and Bozeman
people petitioned Gov. Meagher to for
ward troops to protect the frontier and
give the Indians a wholesome whipping.
The governor at once issued a call for
troops, and every community of import

company, making eleven in all, which

As TO COAL

The coal properties around Bozeman
will be worked this fall for all they are
worth. Several owners have large con-
tracts on their hands, while others are
negotiating with large consumers with
good prospect of success, and it is evil
dent already that the Bohemian coal
fields will be the scene Of great activity
this fall. The report that the Manitoba
railroad intends to build a branch to the
Sand Coulee coal mines does not scare
anyone. The majority of the coal own
ers hereabouts are thoroughly informed
as to the extent and quality of the Sand
Coulee coal and have no fear of it be-
coming a competitor in the market. The
outlook for coal owners was never better.
and there ought to be some money made
in this commodity soon.
